Qmu Doctoral Candidate Association

QMU Doctoral Student Association (DSA)

QMU Doctoral Candidate Association aims to support doctoral candidates undertaking their studies at QMU. We work with QMU Graduate School and the wider university community to move towards the vision of doctoral learning developed in collaboration with QMU Graduate School.

Our vision aligns with that of the Graduate School- to provide a challenging but supportive learning environment that nurtures creative, autonomous, socially-responsible free-thinker.

We hope to support and contribute to this vision through:

Organisation and facilitation of academic events e. g. learning lunches
Representation at Graduate School if requested
Organisation of social activities
Information sharing re: academic and social events and opportunities
Collaborative organisation of annual QMU Postgraduate Conference
